Re: Salmon River - Wild Weekend
Wow, what a report! I've been awaiting to reply to this for days.
Alain, I knew that you and Aaron would destroy them, and the pictures say it all and more! I knew Alain was going to come back with pictures of huge steelhead and browns. . .just the way it had to be. I couldn't be more thrilled!
Guys, was I right, or was I right? Last year, and through the summer months I had been ranting and raving on posts about the joy of hooking a steelhead. Now, after Blackghost, and now Alain have been hooked, I just want to know if you guys feel the same way. Steelheading is the most addictive thing I can possibly think of. The quest for chrome! I know we all (I used to :o), love our stream trout, but is there anything like fishing in subzero temps for a beautiful steelhead, and then being rewarded for your efforts?! ! !
I hope I can live up to the expectations of your spey rod Alain, thank you again!
